well as you can see on the Debian packages site, the plug-ins depend on XFCE and Gnome we already said many times that this is wrong (the dock does not need any desktop dependencies, at all) cairo-dock is desktop -agnostic, and that's done through integration plug-ins that are dynamically loaded, or not, at run time.
I'm not against having a common package (although I dislike the multitude of packages for each plug-in, especially when some plug-ins are necessary to get a correct user experience). but then the Debian packager needs to upgrade to 2.4 and to listen to the devs. 2011/8/24 Matthias Klose <d...@ubuntu.com> > I don't see a reason not to use the debian package as a basis. > > - the -integration package from plug-ins could be added as a delta in the > ubuntu package.
